The corporate landscape is quickly changing on The Young and the Restless. Sally refuses to be used as collateral damage. After the dust had settled on the latest Newman-Chancellor shakeup, she made it clear that her loyalty outweighs her fear of the Moustache. This move has fans divided on her next move.
Key Takeaways
- Sally shocked the Newmans by refusing to return to Newman Media.
- She declared her independence from years of the family’s manipulation.
- Victor is plotting his retaliation, but Sally’s defiance might have found her an unexpected ally.
- Viewers took to social media to debate whether Sally is becoming a formidable power player or if she painted a new target on her back.
Is Sally a Corporate Genius or Target?
Y&R viewers have weighed in on Sally’s (Courtney Hope) refusal to hand over the keys to Newman Media. She bluntly told Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) that she’s tired of being a pawn in the Newman family’s game. She doesn’t care how this makes her look, especially in Victor Newman’s (Eric Braeden) eyes.
Is Sally (whose independence is the shake-up Y&R needed) finally the powerhouse that fans have been waiting for? Or did she just sign her corporate death warrant? There’s no thinking of what Victor could do to her. He didn’t blink twice when he considered a kidnapping plot involving Cane’s (Billy Flynn) ex, Lily (Christel Khalil), and their kids.
This has become a heavy debate on X, formerly Twitter. Some fans have rooted for Sally to end the Newman cycle. Meanwhile, other fans argued that she’s holding onto a company that she doesn’t want. So, why not just give it back?
The Great Social Media Debate
Billy (Jason Thompson) handed Newman Media to Sally on Valentine’s Day. It was given to him as part of his deal with Phyllis (Michelle Stafford). Sally wants nothing to do with NM. But just because she doesn’t want it doesn’t mean she’ll give it back to the Newmans. Some fans think she’s within her rights to do so.
One fan posted: “I don’t understand what people aren’t getting. Sally has zero power to return NM to the Newmans since it was Billy and Phyllis’s doing. Even if she did have the authority to do so, she shouldn’t since that family has been constantly after her company. She doesn’t owe them anything.”
Someone else argued: “Granted, she doesn’t owe the Newmans squat. But IMHO she should return NM to them, if for no other reason than to be done with them AND Billy.”
Another viewer responded: “Sally just renamed the company without Billy’s permission. Jill is the backer, so in effect, she’s the owner. Jill could easily partition off NM and give it to Adam, and then tell Sally they are forming a new company called Spectra-Charles. Let Abbott Com die.”
What are your thoughts? Do you think Sally should return Newman Media to the Newmans? Or do you think she’s free to do whatever she wants with the company?
